Programmable PMICs suit portable devices

The MMPF0200 programmable PMIC, part of the PF series, is optimized for i.MX 6Solo, i.MX 6SoloLite and i.MX 6DualLite applications processors. It targets power-sensitive platforms including portable medical devices, IP headphones, home security systems, IPTV controllers, tablets and home energy management solutions. The device is also designed to be Auto AEC-Q100 Grade 3 compliant for automotive applications such as infotainment systems.

The PMIC’s configurable architecture supports numerous outputs with various current ratings and programmable voltages, allowing it to work as a system-level power solution supporting the core processor, memory and peripherals. It offers 2.8 to 4.5-V input voltage, buck converters with up to four outputs, dynamic voltage scaling, PWM, PFM and APS switching modes, and adjustable switching frequency of1, 2 or 4 MHz. It also provides a 5.0-V boost regulator with OTG support, six LDOs, programmable output voltage, current limit, switching mode, soft start, and a coin-cell charger.
